Dog Training Westlake

Does your four-legged friend have issues like walking you down the street, getting into the trash or jumping on people in your home? Do you just want to do something fun with your dog like teaching them to shake, bow or crawl? Our Westlake (Cleveland) dog training program can help get your pup off your “naughty-dog” list or just help you have more fun with your dog using reward-based methods.

Our Certified Camp Bow Wow Trainers complete an extensive training program with top dog behavior experts and can help you with anything from basic obedience and tricks, all the way up to the tougher issues like leash reactivity. Whether you want to participate in a group setting, take private lessons, or have us train your dog while you’re away, our trainers are ready to work with you and your pup.

TRAIN AT CAMP

Let our Certified Camp Bow Wow Trainers work with your dog while they are at Camp. With our Play & Train and Board & Train options, our Certified dog trainers will spend 30-minutes of one-on-one time with your dog during the day. Your trainer will recommend how many sessions your dog will need to learn the desired behavior, and you can pick up a well-mannered dog!

PRIVATE DOG TRAINING

Our Certified Dog Trainers will work one-on-one with you and your dog in a private setting that is most comfortable for you and your family. Private training can help you with addressing basic behavior issues, obedience or more serious issues.

Call us today to talk to our Certified Camp Bow Wow Trainers and see how we can best help you with your training needs.

Our dog trainers only use reward-based training methods. We believe in rewarding a dog for doing well, rather than having a dog work to avoid a bad outcome. A reward can mean treats, food, praise or even a toy your dog loves. We use clicker training in our obedience classes to let the dog know when they have done the behavior correctly. This helps the dog learn quickly, and then we work to eliminate the clicker and treats. Training this way is fun and rewarding for both the humans and the dogs.

How much does your dog training cost?

The cost of dog training varies depending on whether you are looking to participate in a group class, in-home or in-Camp training. You will want to contact your local Camp to find a Certified Trainer in your area. If you visit your local Camp web site, you can view the costs of all of their training services.

How do I know whether I need an obedience class or private training?

To determine the type of training you and your dog need, you will want to consult with a Camp Bow Wow Trainer. Once they understand what your goals are for training they will be able to help you pick the right training service to meet those needs.

Where does training take place?

Our training program offers both obedience classes and private training. The location of your class will depend on the training option you choose and your Certified Camp Bow Wow Trainer will let you know whether training will be in a Camp Bow Wow location, off-site location or your home.

How do Board & Trains and Play & Trains work?

Board & Trains and Play & Trains are a great way for your dog to receive training while they are staying at Camp Bow Wow. Whether your dog is in for a day of Camp, or staying overnight, you can have a Certified Camp Bow Wow Trainer spend one-on-one time training your dog on specific behaviors. Once you return to pick up your dog, the trainer will have a session with you to show you the dog’s progress and give you instructions on how to maintain the work they have done.

How do I find a schedule for your obedience classes?

Each Camp Bow Wow training program has their own schedule of classes. Contact your local Camp Bow Wow for a schedule of days and times of their classes.

Does my dog need vaccinations to attend training?

Yes, all dogs attending training must have vaccinations for Rabies, Distemper and Bordetella (required every 6 months). For puppies under 4 months, age appropriate vaccinations are required.

Does my dog have to pass the Camper interview before attending training?
